Topic: Brands used in Casino Royale shown in Harrods

An interesting article mentions the following brands that will be used in Casino Royale:

"Aston Martin, Omega, La Perla lingerie, Sony, Bollinger, John Lobb shoes and Persol sunglasses, which all feature in the new movie."

If you're in London you can see a James Bond-inspired Christmas window campaign at Harrods, featuring product placement and paraphernalia from the film.

This is the article:

Does anyone know what type of John Lobb shoes Bond will be wearing? It looks like a pretty appropriate brand for Bond: super exclusive.

John Lobb shoes are fantastic, bespoke and far more exclusive than the Brozza era Church's, which are nice shoes, but are not in the same league as Lobbs.  I think this change is great, Connery and Lazenby both wore Lobbs shoes.

They are a little costly though, at over £2k a pair.

Yes, but our buddy Indy Magnoli makes bespoke shoes now for a whole lot less than Lobb.  You can match the look without incurring the cost.
